Selling

Selling a home in the Atlanta market requires setting a competitive price, an aggressive marketing presence and following a few guidelines that help make your house show above the rest.

A Regent Group Realty associate can assist you in determining a competitive price in current market conditions and begin the marketing process. Our sales associates are highly skilled professionals who will assist you throughout the marketing period, from guidance to setting the offering price through showings, contract negotiations and at the closing table.

Superior service and attention to detail are the reasons why our associates sell more homes in the Atlanta area than any of our competitors.

Below are a few suggestions to prepare your home for a successful showing. It is not necessary to complete each suggested improvement. Invest only in those areas where deterioration is visible or where one of our suggestions will enhance the appearance of your property thereby making it more appealing.
